    Just would like to introduce and give some updates :)

    Illuminated door sill plates ,
    This is a prototype picture of the Stainless LED (not EL) door sill plates .I will also make them out of Aluminum and powdercoat them clear and black.
    The 300zx logo is just a prototype,,don't worry .
    The altia versions were made out of Aluminum but scratched easily and also were very soft,so you would get some dings very easy.
    Also I will offer guarantee on the electronics,like the Altia version most of them with time developed problems with the inverters .Also I will add proper sealing on the door sill plates which is why most of them with time failed.

    Currently in production the door striker covers made out of polypropylene,I had to do a correction in the mould,and also awaiting some supplies to arrive .I also need to check the fitting on some other Nissan cars .Price <$10.00
    [​IMG]

    this is what they cover.
    [​IMG]
    I had a friend all from down under make these for me:) Steering wheel emblems for the now Airbag steering wheels.To replicate the Jspec emblems,If you don't like the "Carbon Fiber" OEM emblems these would be a great option.Press in fitment or can use a double sided tape.33mm Diameter FYI.I need to confirm if the non-cruise control 90-93 steering wheels use the same emblems,if you have on of these it would have a lot .

    Z logo valve caps,Got to give credits to Cap927(Boston) ,ttnet member) for being the first to have offered these in the past,It is a shame that for over 21 of the existence of the Z32 no one else has ever made them before with the correct logo.They may be small and unnoticeable but oh well :)
    [​IMG]

    i will also do them in red,but these turned out "Orange"as you can see in the picture but I will have some new correct ones.

    Z lighters ..
    I have been selling lighters and cigar accessories for the last 11 years (wholesale) .And I will stop selling this year .Mainly for the tourist market here in Aruba,but since Sept 11 there is a strict control now.
    So it will be a nice way to end the lighter business with these lighters that I designed.


    On one side it has the 300zx RHD embossed.sorry LHD guys :) also with the raised 300zx ..(which is why I was asking for a correct 300zx logo a couple of weeks ago ).
    Also the Z logo on the nose panel is a little bigger,otherwise it would look way too small.
    on the back side a Z logo ,and Fairlady Z written in Japanese. Z pronounced in Japanese "Fearadi Z" FYI . You can use these characters in the search on Yahoo auctions you'll be surprised :) go to translate.google.com english to Japanese then enter Fairlady Z there you will get the characters.

    An update for the rear wiper delete kit.
    Some people were concerned about the proper seal of the plug,I haven't had no issues with leaking on my Z's,since they fit very flush to the body.

    But I had some 0.8mm thick washer made a Metro Gasket .this is their website [ www.metrogasket.com ] I highly recommend this company.
    Also it will come now with a rear sprayer plug,(awaiting order from McMaster). FYI it will require a 7/8" finishing plug ,and for a 3mm thick panel.the Diameter of the hole is 22.2 and 7/8" is 22.252mm ..much better than e 22mm finishing plug.If you have ordered these from me,Send me an e-mail and I can mail you the washer and the plugs free of charge when I am in the US .I think it is the right thing to do :)
    [​IMG]

    Thinking about these in 1/10 scale but with more details.Would make a nice paperweight.
    [​IMG]

    Need to get some OEM samples from a guy in Denver to get these finally made ,to be made in the USA.
    [​IMG]
    this isn't my picture but you get the idea
    [​IMG]

    And yes there is still a lot of parts still to be made for the Z32 .The list is very long.

    And lastly I think I will give Cresta the honor ,since it is very hard to sell directly to Australia,well it all depends if he is still interested ,I think he is still mad at me . :)

    I would love a accurate 1/10 scale model engine! I've been looking around for a while for nearly any scale model Nissan engine and can't find anything. You can get American V8's, but nothing kewl like a RB26 or VG30...

    And the steering column gauge mount is pretty nifty, I want one!

    Thanks everyone.

    Currently still in the prototyping phase.Still needs some stuff corrected on them,And I will also offer different options on them.

    Some of them I have in stock and some of them,still in production,I am basically looking for someone with would be interested to distrubute and still keep the prices low.



    Haven't started yet on the column gauges,the ones I showed were made out of FRP ,But the intention is to make them out of plastic.


    Hi Chrispy ,You can get a 1/24 scale RB26DETT engine made by Aoshima
    [​IMG]
    Also a Rb20 FYI [​IMG]
    But yes a 1/10 scale would look very nice and also with some added details,


    Thanks

    I just hope whoever distributes these products don't jack the prices up too high as per usual.

    This is one of my main concerns,as I give the distributors a decent price.so I hope the prices can still be kept low

    Just wondering if the items reached already,I have no idea where to track them :)

    I contacted Caz last November but we lost contact ,I saw she got sick and that she was in the hospital,if she can give you guys some great prices,then she'll get the green light :)
